Ohh by the way...I lost some pounds..
I lost 4 pounds!!!!!!
I was so stoked when I got on that scale and it was down 4 pounds and I have to lose 6 more before surgery!!!! yayaaaa!!!! I was so worried to that I gained weight too. Thanks everyone for Congrats!! Surgery is coming up soon...21 more days!!! while I was there I got to try some protein drinks too and wow..they have this new kind now called Strawberry Mousse..believe it or not..it was sooo good and my mom bought me some and some chocolate kinda that I liked too. She also got me a shaker cup...I am so glad for my mom..I was so nervous to ask her for help with this surgery on buying stuff I need. When I asked her she was all for it and was like I will help you...I was so excited...I love my mom! Thank God for her and all my other friends online here on OH!!!!

You are blessed to have a mom like her all too often we read on the boards how its the opposite so count your lucky stars. You will do fine on this new journey and let me welcome you to the losers bench. Hey everybody move over one more person is coming on. Did I see Strawberry Mousse? Hell I am there for that one and chocolate? Is it mousse too? I have to stop at Barix for a re-supply anyway. Good luck and take care.
See... it WILL work! You can totally do this! Just get out there and get moving and believe in yourself and you'll be surprised how well you do!
The shaker cups are awesome, btw. I use mine daily for my water, actually, because I know that I need 2-1/2 of them total before I go to bed. Helps keep me honest. But they're great for mixing things like the 4C totally light to go packs (kinda like crystal light but with splenda)... and when we went to the zoo a couple of weeks ago I put my milk and pureed banana in it "on ice" in my insulated backpack and carried my protein powder separately, so I could mix it when I was ready to drink it... it mixed beautifully and was perfect.
Sorry - I haven't mailed that protein powder to you yet. I will do that this week - probably tomorrow I'll have time to get to the post office.
KEEP IN MIND THAT YOUR TASTES MAY CHANGE AFTER SURGERY!!! So something you taste now might not taste as great later and vice versa. Just gotta try it at various points and in a variety of combinations.
Good luck and keep up the momentum!
